Today the readings in Isaiah 26, Psalm 118, and the end of Matthew 7 all point to Jesus the cornerstone. Today I rejoice in the day He has made because He is the chief cornerstone, my Rock, my Refuge, a gentle place of protection, power and strength. His power and strength can restore what my sin has trampled and hindered. His power and strength are what I need in every situation. He has a secure place for each of us, His is our everlasting Rock. When we call on him in distress He hears and answers. He sets me in a large place, a place where I can see and hear and be free. He is my strength, my song, and my salvation. He is ours.

Even though the stone was rejected It is the Cornerstone, my hope, my Jesus. I can hear and do the will of the Father, because my house is set and secure on Him. He knows me because of the Cornerstone.
